I'm buying a custom built comp since my old computer sucked and I need to know whether these specs will be adequate for gaming. I'll mostly be playing WoW and minecraft although I might try out diablo 3 since my old computer couldn't handle it. I'm kind of a noob at this.

For WoW those specs are above adequate. If you're looking to run more modern games like Guild Wars 2 and Diablo 3, you might want to invest in a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti since it's one of the cheapest cards that can run modern games on a high setting.
